These Flat Marine Enamel (FME-oil based) paints have been used for decoys and boats by generations of hunters in this region. We have a mile long area of waterfront (Lake St. Clair) known as the Nautical

Mile. There are more boats in this one mile of lake frontage than any other place in the country. That,

on top of the fact that we are an “old world’ market hunting area, gives us an advantage in the develop-

ment of decoy and boat paints. Chris Craft started in this lake and their “roots” began with duck hunting boats and decoys. We are rich in duck history.

All of our paints (FME) are manufactured for us, to our color requirements and specifications. These colors are designed to be UV protected and have a FLAT finish, perfect for all of your decoy and hunt-

ing boat needs. For your convenience, we package these paints in gallons, quarts, pints, ½ pints and ¼

pints. We can also have any color custom blended for you. We are your “one stop shop” for decoy and boat paints. These FME paints are “primer based”, meaning that they are self priming, have a high

pigment and flattener “load” and can be overcoated.

Painting an Aluminum or Fiberglass Boat

1. Be sure the boat has been cleaned off well with soap and water to remove all dirt, grease, leaves,

grime and all that stuff that accumulates from years of hunting.

2. Lightly solvent wipe things down with a rag and lacquer thinner. This will remove any gasoline, oil

or petroleum residues that would mess with your sanding or prevent paint from adhering.

When finished with the solvent rag, be sure to let it set out and lose it’s solvents before you put it into a closed container or trash can.

3. Sand the entire boat, as required, to remove and/or scuff all the paint. Be sure to remove any loose

paint. When sanding a duck boat, I prefer 80-100 grit. It gives better “tooth” and, after

all……..it’ll help with the dulled surface and paint adhesion. Sanding must be taken into the

best previously adhered surface in order to have the new coat of paint hold properly.

4. For Aluminum boat-Spot prime any bare aluminum with ASG Primer (or AG Primer), specifically

designed for use on “Aluminum, Stainless & Galvanized”. Do not thin AG Primer. A second

option would be to prime the entire boat with PPG’s Epoxy Primer.

5. For Fiberglass boat-You can go right to the FME as this is a Primer-Based Paint and will serve as

its own primer. If you would like, another option would be to prime with PPG-Epoxy Primer

and then follow up with FME.

6. Once the primer has dried (AG, PPG or 1st coat of FME), you can base coat the entire boat, inside

and out, with the base coat FME (Flat Marine Enamel-oil based) color of your choice. FME is

a “primer-based” paint and requires no other primer underneath it on a properly prepared surface. You may use a brush, roller or sprayer. When spraying, the best is an airless sprayer

though you can thin slightly with a high quality paint thinner for use in a regular air spray gun.

If using the air-feed spray gun, we recommend the top-cup, gravity feed style of gun. It uses less air and less thinning to get a proper pattern. You will also achieve greater success with a

couple thinner coats rather than one thick coat. Thinner coats will cure/dry much faster and

more thoroughly….thus, more durable. Secret: “thin, you win”.

7. When the base coat is dry (usually overnight in good temps), you may accent with any other FME

color you’d like. The options are endless……match your local vegetation.

We have several camouflage patterned paint schemes and colors available.

*Our 2-tone Reed Stripe was developed for the cat-tail marshes & flooded corn. Base coat in

Starcraft Camo Light Brown (#26) and reed stripe with an automotive striping brush

with Starcraft Camo Dark Brown (#27), thinning #27 on the palette as you work. We developed these colors through PPG specifically for us and Starcraft. You can even

“green it up” a bit with Dead Grass Green (#28), O/D Green (#35) or some Olive (#18).

*Our Open Water Gray Pattern is very effective for layout hunting. You can base coat the en tire boat with Open Water Medium Gray (#33) or Open Water Dark Gray (#34) and

allow it to dry. Once dry, overstripe with a wave pattern of Open Water Light Gray

(#32) by cutting the feed pressure down, reducing the size of your pattern to a small

area and reducing the feed rate so it will be easy to control. Move the spray gun around in a lazy “wave”, walk alongside the boat and “wave” the gun to give the pattern you’d

like. We have pictures of these patterns that we can email to you.

You can create your own color patterns/schemes with any of the FME colors we have. All the decoy and boat paints are TRUE - FLAT MARINE ENAMELS and work well with each other. We also do

custom colors at no extra cost. Holler with any questions…as always...Helping you enjoy your Sport!
